Liangsui frowned, "You just need to say who you are."
"You don't even know me? I would like to ask, where did you come from as an unruly maid?" the servant woman said sternly.
As Fu Zhao's dowry maid, Liang Sui is also Fu Zhao's confidant. No one in this courtyard dares to speak to Liang Sui like this.
Liangsui couldn't help but wonder, who is this person? How dare he speak like this?
Siqi heard the commotion in the yard and came out. He hurriedly walked towards the woman and explained: "Mother Qiu, you haven't seen her before so you don't know her. She is the dowry maid of the Crown Prince's wife."
The servant named Mama Qiu raised her eyes arrogantly, looked Liangsui up and down, and said coldly: "Even the maidservant of the Crown Prince's wife cannot understand the rules."
Liangsui choked. Si Qi had already introduced her identity, but this Qiu mother still spoke to her like this. Wasn't it disrespectful to Fu Zhao?
Liangsuo's face darkened and he was about to have a seizure.
Seeing that Liangsui was angry, Si Qi was afraid that the two of them would quarrel, so she quickly took Mother Qiu's arm and pulled Mother Qiu into the house.
As she walked, she said: "Mom has been home for so long, and she hasn't seen the Crown Prince's wife yet. The Crown Prince's wife is inside, I'll take you in."
Seeing Siqi dragging Qiu's mother into the house, Liangsui followed her in.
This mother Qiu looked at her with her nose pointed at her, arrogant and rude. She was afraid that mother Qiu would also have a bad attitude towards Fu Zhao.
Fu Zhao saw everything in the yard from the window, heard footsteps at the door, and sat down.
The three people walked in.
Mother Qiu raised her head and looked at Fu Zhao without any hesitation.
Because he was indoors, Fu Zhao wore a waist-cut skirt that outlined his slender waist.
Mother Qiu frowned when she saw her. She was so thin that it might be difficult for her to have children in the future.
Mother Qiu looked at Fu Zhao's face again. She was indeed good-looking but not grand enough. It would be nothing to say if an aunt looked like this.
Thinking of the family background of the prince's wife, Mother Qiu's heart was filled with dissatisfaction.
Why did the prince choose such a person?
Also, without his own mother, who would really consider the prince?
In this important matter of the engagement, Mrs. Chen must be eager for the prince to suffer a big loss!
Si Qi saw that Qiu's mother was not polite when she came to Fu Zhao, so she reminded her: "Mom, this is the crown prince's wife."
Mother Qiu came to her senses, saluted Fu Zhao, and stood up again without waiting for Fu Zhao to speak.
Si Qi secretly sighed, "Mrs. Crown Prince, Mother Qiu is the wife's companion and also the Crown Prince's wet nurse. Because my mother was ill, she went home to recuperate for a year."
Fu Zhao's eyebrows moved. No wonder Mother Qiu's back was straight in front of her.
She is the wife of the late wife and the prince's wet nurse. Doesn't that mean she can walk sideways in the prince's yard?
Fu Zhao asked softly: "Is mom well-educated now?"
Mother Qiu said: "Old slave's health is almost better."
"Since everything is not healed yet, why doesn't mom come back after spending the New Year at home?"
Mother Qiu smiled coldly, "If I don't come back, I'm afraid the prince's place will be in chaos. I'm worried, so I came back early."
As soon as Qiu's mother said these words, the two maids Siqi and Liangsui's hearts sank and they quickly looked towards Fu Zhao.
Isn't what Mother Qiu said like a slap in the face to Fu Zhao?
Now that the Crown Prince's wife is sitting in the Crown Prince's courtyard, how could there be chaos?
Mother Qiu looked around and asked, "By the way, I've been back for so long, why haven't I seen that girl Hongyue?"
If Mother Qiu hadn't mentioned it, Fu Zhao would have almost forgotten that there was such a person.
The smile on Fu Zhao's face did not change at all, and he said, "Does mom and Hongyue have a good relationship?"
Mother Qiu replied: "It's not that we have a close relationship, but we still have a bit of affection for each other by serving the prince together."
Fu Zhaoxiao asked: "In that case, why didn't Hongyue say anything to you when she eloped with someone else?"
Mother Qiu's expression changed, "Elope?"
Fu Zhao nodded gently, "Yes, elope."
Speaking of this, Fu Zhao stopped laughing, his face turned cold, and he said sternly: "Hongyue eloped with another man. If word spreads, everyone in the Hou Mansion will be implicated by her. So if mother knows, don't say anything."
When you go out, just pretend that the red moon doesn't exist. Since mom just came back, go and clean up your house, and I won't let you talk anymore."
As soon as Mama Qiu came in, Fu Zhao smiled gently no matter what she said. She only thought that Fu Zhao had a personality as soft as dough and was easy to handle.
She didn't expect Fu Zhao to come to her suddenly.
Mother Qiu's hand hidden in her sleeves tightly held the sweat towel, "Then I won't disturb your rest, I will leave."
After that, Mother Qiu left, her back seemed to be dissatisfied.
Fu Zhao picked up the tea bowl at hand and took a sip before saying to Si Qi: "Has she always been like this?"
Siqi wiped her sweat and told her what she knew, "Yes, Mother Qiu has always had such a temper. Even in front of Madam, Mother Qiu dared to make sarcastic remarks. Mother Qiu's identity is
There, the masters in the Hou Mansion didn't care about her, and the servants avoided her if they could. Looking at the entire Hou Mansion, Mother Qiu has the best relationship with Hongyue."
"Although Hong Yue has been serving the Crown Prince for a short time, she did not know what means she used to get into Mother Qiu's eyes. Before you got married, the Crown Prince's yard was controlled by Mother Qiu and Hong Yue."
Fu Zhao asked: "What is the prince's attitude towards Mother Qiu?"
"Because of Mother Qiu's status, the Crown Prince has always been polite to her. And the Crown Prince doesn't care about the twists and turns in the back house."
Fu Zhao probably knew that Mother Qiu was also a difficult person.
But today was New Year's Eve, and she didn't want to think about those troublesome things.
Fu Zhao talked about the arrangements for New Year's Eve again, "Later, Liangsui and I will go to my mother's place to keep the New Year's Eve. You can take some money from my box and go to the small kitchen or go out to buy some good wine and food. Those will do.
If you can't go home to reunite with your family, you can have a good meal with them."
The chess player responded.
Liangsui was brought over from the Fu family by Fu Zhao, so the friendship between the two was naturally different from others.
Fu Zhao wants to take Liang Sui with him, and Si Qi understands this very well.
Fu Zhao guessed that the time was almost up, so he took Liangsui to Mrs. Chen's place.
Tonight is the New Year's Eve family banquet, and some relatives from the Houfu branch will also come.
Fu Zhao met several people while walking on the road, so she went to Mrs. Chen's place with those relatives.
When we arrived at Mrs. Chen's place, it was even more lively.
Fu Zhao had a smile on his face and went to pay his respects to Mrs. Chen.
